City Accomodation Tax
The Accommodation Tax
1. The Accommodation Tax (AT) is a five percent (5%) levy on the purchase price
of accommodation, provided for a continuous period of 60 nights or less.
The effective date for the implementation of the AT is for accommodation
rentals commencing on the night of January 1, 2009. The AT is collected at
the time of purchase/payment of the accommodation and is not applied to the
cost of meals and other services that are distinct from the accommodation
purchased.
The “Continuous Stay” Rule
6. Where accommodation is provided for a continuous period of greater than
60 nights, a purchaser must, at the time of purchasing accommodation, pay
an accommodation tax in the amount of 5% of the purchase price of the accommodation
provided for the first 60 nights in the continuous period. For example:
• A person intends to rent a room for a continuous period of 90 nights.
Only the first 60 nights continuous rental period are charged the AT.
(NOTE: The moving of a person from one room to another within the same establishment
and with no
break in the occupancy has no effect on the determination of the number of
nights of continuous rental).
